Noting that NDA government has successfully tackled internal security challenges in the last nine years, the union minister affirmed that violence is coming down substantially in Kashmir, while insurgency in Northeast and Left Wing Extremism-affected areas has also reduced and the people’s confidence is increasing.
The number of people involved in terror activities is declining and many are laying down arms and joining the mainstream, he said.

The welcome board contained doctored images of BJP leaders who had defected from other parties, such as Himanta Biswa Sarma, Narayan Rane, Suvendu Adhikari, Sujana Chowdhary, and Eshwarappa.
Amid the ongoing investigation of BRS MLC and Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao’s daughter, K Kavitha, in the Delhi liquor case, this poster was displayed in Hyderabad, criticising the BJP.
